Of the korean places I've tried in Ottawa (only 1 other as there are very few) this one is probably the best one. They bring a whole lot of 'stuff' when you order a meal. Most of it I'm not really sure what it is but it comes free with the meal so no complaints. The kimchi here is ok I've had better but the kimchi soup is very tasty and spicy. The table cooking is a bit more pricey but I thought it was fun especially when on a date with my gf. Korean food is not too popular in ottawa but for a nice experience I'd give this place a try.
- Order: Kimchi, table cooking, kimchi soup
- Finally a chinese place downtown bank street!

I work downtown by bank st and laurier and walked by (through the construction) and was thrilled to see a place that served chinese food. It's a small place that serves take-out but they have a few seats if you must sit and eat.
Ordered a pomegranate bubble tea which was tasty, some very fresh tasting shrimp salad rolls with peanut sauce and a combination plate. Let me tell you that this place has quality chicken balls unlike most of the chinese places where the chicken balls are mostly dough these ones actually have a generous amount of meat in them! For someone who eats out for lunch almost daily I'm happy to have found this place.
Also had the chicken satay on rice which was flavorful but a bit too spicy for me (i'm a wuss) Will visit again! - Order: Shrimp Salad Rolls, Combination plate, Bubble tea

Not a super fancy restaurant but the food and service is awesome. I love the lemon chicken and singapore fried rice. We ALWAYS order desert here - the deep fried bananas. I usually just stick to ordering the same things so I can't really comment on the rest of the menu. Tried a few other things once and it was ok. Waiters work very hard here. Great restaurant!
- Order: Satay beef and chicken, lemon chicken, Shrimp /w cilantros, singapore fried rice and dessert
- Great service, food OK

I have come here many times and almost always order the combination dinners which usually include spring rolls, soup, fried rice and a couple of entrees. The portions are pretty huge. 3 of us shared a dinner for 2. However, lately the quality of the food has gone down a bit. The chicken was very salty this time around and the beef didn't taste too fresh. I'm still willing to go back and give them another chance!
- Order: Dinner for 2
- Food good, waiter not so

Went in with my girlfriend on a Sunday, the place was busy and noticeably very hot and humid inside. Not sure if their air conditioner was broken or not but it was rather uncomfortable. I ordered a smoothie which was good and a Fruit Crepe. I asked for no pineapples because of allergies and the waiter gave me a bit of a hard time almost like he didn't believe me. My girlfriend ordered the crepeomelette with spinach cheese which she enjoyed. Overall I enjoy the Cora's franchise but next time I might head over to the one off bank street.
- Order: Fruit Crepe and Crepeomellete
